Charleston, SC day 2

Lets see it was a learning about History day as we traveled to  Patriots Point  across the river.
Here at Patriots Point Naval and Maritime Museum  

We were able to board the USS LAFFEY,  USS  CLAMAGORE, and the USS  YORKTOWN.  I all can say and this was the whole family thoughts  was that  you needed to be super skinny, short and flexible to  live and work on any of these  vessels.  Lots of stairs, shin busters, and head removal devices in place :)

This was a great learning experience for all of us and it would be great to have all of them around for years to come  so please  help out if you can  this is history that we can not afford to lose.
